AFP: 750,000 dollars in damages for cuckolded husband

“A Mississippi businessman must pay more than 750,000 dollars in damages to the man whose wife he wooed away, after the US Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear an appeal in the case.”

And I’m not about to lay some guilt trip about carbon footprints or food miles on you. Those things are common sense. I actually think it’s time we adopted Derek Batey’s famous sign-off from Mr & Mrs:

Be nice to each other.

This is The Manners Manifesto. It’s time for a return to – or a formalisation of – good manners. Here’s how we do it:

  1. Smile
  2. Say please and thank you

  4. Be friendly to strangers

  9. Leaving bags of stuff outside charity shops when they’re closed? Come on!
  10. Talk to people at the check-out
  11. Don’t swear when there are kids about
